Product details
Overview
LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision adjustable shunt voltage reference in SOT-23-3 package, delivering 1.233 V nominal reference voltage with ±0.5% initial tolerance at 25°C, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 20 μVRMS wideband noise (10 Hz–10 kHz). It operates from 60 μA to 12 mA over −40°C to +125°C and supports output voltages from 1.24 V to 10 V in battery-powered instrumentation and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable output range, low quiescent current, extended temperature grade, reverse breakdown stability under capacitive loads, and feedback-pin leakage (≤100 nA at 25°C).
Technical Context
The LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB uses a bandgap-based Zener-zap trimmed shunt architecture with curvature-corrected temperature drift compensation. Its three-terminal configuration (Anode, Cathode, FB) enables programmable output via external resistor divider while maintaining low dynamic impedance (0.3 Ω typical at VOUT = VREF) and stable regulation across load and temperature extremes.
Unlike fixed-output variants, the ADJ version requires explicit feedback connection to the FB pin, where input bias current remains ≤100 nA at 25°C and ≤120 nA over full temperature range-critical for high-impedance divider networks. Output voltage sensitivity to cathode current change is ±1.5 mV over 60 μA–1 mA at 25°C, and thermal hysteresis is limited to 0.08% after cycling between −40°C and +125°C.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431CDBVR | Fixed 2.495 V reference; higher 100 μA min current; 2% initial tolerance; no adjustable option | Requires redesign of resistor network; unsuitable for sub-2.4 V outputs or precision <1% systems | Select only if fixed 2.5 V output suffices and tighter tolerance is not required |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB supports an output voltage range of 1.24 V to 10 V, set by an external resistor divider connected to the FB pin. This upper limit is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and validated across the full −40°C to +125°C operating range. Exceeding 10 V risks violating internal junction limits and invalidating AEC-Q100 qualification.
Does LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB does not require an external output capacitor. Its internal design ensures stability with any capacitive load up to 10 μF, eliminating the need for added capacitance in most applications. This feature reduces bill-of-materials count and PCB area, particularly valuable in compact SOT-23 layouts used in portable and automotive electronics.
What is the feedback pin (FB) input bias current specification for LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB?
The FB pin input bias current for LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB is ≤100 nA at 25°C and ≤120 nA over the full −40°C to +125°C temperature range. This ultra-low leakage enables use with high-value resistor dividers (e.g., 1 MΩ–10 MΩ) without introducing significant voltage error, preserving accuracy in precision-adjustable reference designs.
Is LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified for automotive use, with guaranteed operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. It meets stringent reliability and stress-test requirements defined in the AEC-Q100 standard, making it suitable for engine control, body electronics, and ADAS sensor signal conditioning where long-term parametric stability is critical.
How does the temperature coefficient of LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB impact system accuracy?
The LM4041CIM7-ADJ/NOPB has a maximum average temperature coefficient of 100 ppm/°C over −40°C to +125°C. At a 5 V output setting, this contributes ≤±62.5 mV total drift across the full range-well within 0.1% system tolerance budgets. Its curvature-compensated bandgap design minimizes nonlinearity, ensuring predictable, monotonic drift behavior for calibration algorithms.
